[thebaptiste]

What happened?

pkg_resources is deprecated as an API. See https://setuptools.pypa.io/en/latest/pkg_resources.html. The pkg_resources package is slated for removal as early as 2025-11-30. Refrain from using this package or pin to Setuptools<81

So you should replace pkg_resources.parse_version by packaging.version.parse

Relevant code

import tensorflow_hub

Other libraries

I'm using tensorflow_hub 0.16.1 with tensorflow 2.20.0 on Python 3.13

To keep compatibility with setuptools >= 81 you should replace (__init__.py, line 61) :

from pkg_resources import parse_version

by

from packaging.version import parse as parse_version
